The Mob Museum, the National Museum of Organized Crime and Law Enforcement, announces FREE museum admission for Nevada residents (with I.D.) and buy-one, get-one admission for non-residents to celebrate Kefauver Day, which commemorates the U.S. Senate investigative hearing into organized crime that took place in the Museum’s courtroom on Nov. 15, 1950.
Additionally, bites from the local Mob Dawgs LV food truck will be available and visitors will have the opportunity to enjoy a display of vintage Cadillacs courtesy of Las Vegas’ Cadillac Club.
Named after Senator Estes Kefauver of Tennessee, the Kefauver Committee hearings were televised nationwide and brought organized crime into the living rooms of many Americans for the first time. Held in 14 U.S. cities from 1950 to 1951, the Kefauver hearings were pivotal in the national fight against organized crime, as well as events that influenced the development of Las Vegas.
Free admission for Nevada residents and buy-one, get-one admission for non-residents furthers the Museum’s mission and ensures accessibility and reach within the community. Kefauver Day is generously sponsored by Bank of Nevada.
In addition to free admission for Nevada residents, all guests will receive 10% off food and beverage inside The Underground speakeasy and at Museum concessions. Guests may obtain their free admission in person at the Museum box office on a first-come, first-served basis.
The Mob Museum is located at 300 Stewart Avenue, Las Vegas, NV 89101. On Wednesday, November 15, 2023, the Mob Museum will be open from 9 a.m. – 9 p.m. The car show will take place from 11 a.m. – 3 p.m.
